Interpret This 1994 Label From The Netherlands?

Affixed to the back of an envelope sent from Holland. Can anyone interpret what is being promoted?

let me get the interpretor..it looks like Radio Orange !!

I believe it is a label announcing the soccer matches during the June 1994 World Cup (wk in dutch) with the date and time. The color of the label is orange as that is the national color of Holland.

It makes sense to me, I suppose. I just wonder how much lead time was required to print and distribute these so-called stamps so that they could be used to promote a dated event.

Radio
A major role in keeping the Dutch resistance alive was played by the BBC and 'Radio Oranje', Radio Orange, the broadcasting service of the Dutch government in exile. Listening to both (and any other foreign, non-Nazi) programs was forbidden, and after about a year the Germans decided to confiscate all Dutch radio receivers. About half of all sets were taken, the rest went underground.

ignore the 2 dates typo

Indeed it's the dates and times (1:30 u.... 1994 World Cup was in the US so the games were pretty late over here in Europe).

I guess it's an old envelope?

jopie is right, they are from the 1994 World Cup (in the USA) although these are only attachments to the real stamp. The stamp was issued June 1st, around 10 days before the start of the World Cup, which is a VERY popular event here in the Netherlands (hence the issue I suppose). To clarify just how popular, last July the Dutch reached the final of this year's World Cup, and that match was watched by 12 million people out of a total population of 16 million.

Here's the stamp including the attachment:

What a dummy I am..i picked up the stamps in 94 when we were in Holland and I never paid that much attention to the label..everything was painted orange in 94..cars,bars !!

Thank you for the info. I have the stamp, but never realized the dates were merely an attachment to the original stamp. It explains a lot.

No problem philb

We all amke those mistakes sometimes <G>. I am willing to bet when you were there, even oranges were orange too.
